About 200 of Shanquella Robinson's closest friends and family gathered in North Carolina Saturday to support her family and listen to her father talk about the first time he saw his daughter in the funeral home.

Her father, Bernard Robinson, spoke at a rally in a funeral home after his daughter's death in late October, saying that he knew for sure that she had been physically assaulted when he saw her in her casket with a knot and a cut on her lip.

According to Fox News, in addition to her swollen and injured lip, Bernard reported his daughter also had a massive bump on her head.

The Teen Advisory Board of the Million Youth March organized the rally in Charlotte and Salisbury.

"Daddy stood there crying like a baby," Bernard said. "I sat there and said, 'Baby, Daddy will get you justice.'"

Shanquella Robinson: Cause of Death

Shanquella Robinson's death was ruled to have resulted from "a direct attack" by Mexican police, who issued a warrant for the suspect's capture.

According to prosecutors, the extradition process for Shanquella and six of her pals reportedly began on October 28 in Mexico.

The prosecution also stated that a lady who knew the victim was involved in what they call "a direct attack, not an accident, " resulting in the victim's death.

A femicide arrest warrant has been issued, and Baja California Sur Attorney General Daniel de la Rosa has confirmed that the extradition process for the suspect has begun.

Shanquella's friends returned to Charlotte and told her family that she had died from drinking too much, even though that was not on the official paperwork.

According to CNN, a severe injury to Shanquella's spinal cord and an Atlas subluxation complex, in which the top bone of the neck moves out of place and presses on the spinal cord and brain stem, led to her untimely demise.

Shanquella Robinson Update

Sallamondra Robinson, Shanquella's mother, said she has been unable to reach her daughter's friends, who joined her in Mexico after their story was disproven by the autopsy.

Sallamondra Robinson stated she could not confront Shanquella's friend since they were gone.

She also said that she talked to the cops but could not communicate with the others because she did not see them anymore.

Bernard added that he wants the Mexico authorities and the embassy to do the right thing as her daughter and her friends have gone to their territory, committed the crime, and returned home.

In this case, legal experts have warned that extraditing a U.S. citizen to Mexico could be lengthy, delaying justice delivery.

Defense counsel and former Mecklenburg County judge Yolanda Trotman warned, "People need to understand that this is not going to be a quick process," per WSOC-TV.

Extradition, she continued, is a lengthy process, and justice may not look like we are used to.

The State Department has said they monitor the situation closely and support an in-depth investigation into the facts.

Still, due to the sensitive nature of the family's position, the State Department will not comment on the extradition case or provide any further information.
